    What is the most effective brand of creatine currently out on the market?

    I have never taken creatine before so I'm looking to find out what brand is most effective. I've been doing some reading and CellTech seemed like a good idea but I'm a little wary of putting 70g of sugar in my system. Fizogen Mid Cycle seems like a good brand but it also seems way overpriced. I've also been looking into AdEnergey by optimum and Meta-Cel but does any of that stuff work? I'd preferr to take a creatine supplement that isn't just the pure monohydrate, rather one that you mix with water and you're done. Also the 10g suggested dose seems a little hefty, are there any real benefits taking 10g instead of 5? I am under 20 so I don't want to mess around with prohormones. I've also heard that after the initial gains, you take creatine purely to preserve those gains. Any truth to this? Any answers will help.

    I'm taking Cell-Tech right now, not sure if it's something I'd buy again but I paid 40$ for it so I'm going to use it until the end, unless it starts giving me undesirable results.

    I'll keep you posted on how it goes, I started initially taking 10 grams post-work out and I'm totally ignoring the loading phase because I don't want to put too much sugar in my blood so I'm going down to 5 grams post-workout I think which only is really under 30grams of that pharmaceutical dextrose stuff.

    I would recommend Elite-K. The best product out there and I tried them all.
    No sugar or carbs, my strength went up immediately.

    Kyle V your affiliation with Elite-K is quite transparent.

    Uh oh....another troll? You're a disgrace to the name Kyle!

    I use Vitalstate Creatine Actijubes. By far the most effective in my experience. I got some free samples from them months back...not sure if they're still giving them out or not.
    But when you disarm them, you at once offend them by showing that you distrust them, either for cowardice or for want of loyalty, and either of these opinions breeds hatred against you.

    I like SwoleV2 and SanV12 for non responders and plain monohydrate for the responders.

    I find Vitargo CGL most efective of all. (Resultswise, NOT tastewise)
